Take a Closer Look

Push-button operation gives access even to novice users, while experienced microscopists will appreciate the comprising application-based image analysis tools of WiSoft Athena image analysis software.

Scan a 96-well plate in 2 min, or a 1536 well plate in 20 mins.

Hermes WiScan operates at extremely high speeds of image acquisition. Multi-channel imaging of a 384 well plate with four colors is finalized after 5 min – in all ranges of magnification, achieving an image resolution from 0.1 – 3 µm/pixel 60x – 2x.

Time Lapse Experiments

Live-cell imaging gets feasible by the instrument’s environmental stabilization conditions. While the objectives are moved for scanning, the microplate remains fixed during the assay.

Object Mapping

Smart object mapping further enhances throughput: at fast low magnification scans whole wells, identifying areas of interest, which are then imaged at higher magnification (e.g., 20x – 60x) using patented automatic objective changer.

Automation

Readily interface WiScan to plate stackers and robotic plate handlers for efficient high-resolution imaging 24/7 experiments, including remote accessibility. Numerous established lab robots are supported.
